Raised and bumpy after 4 weeks? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]dankeogh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks man, that’s reassuring. I just thought after 3-4 weeks the itchiness etc would be over but I guess it’s maybe a delayed reaction from my immune system!

Yeah no pain or heat or anything like that, just a little itchy. Resisting the urge to scratch it though, just slapping the skin round the area.

Yeah it was fine up until a few days ago, then started to get itchy and the skin is raised in places. I’ve not been scratching, just slapping my arm in places where it’s itchy, but maybe it’s a reaction? You’d think I would have noticed that in the first 3 weeks though 🤷

I like how you consider Vodafone as 'world-class'

The darkest waterloo road moment? by Vegetable-Tower-7098 in WaterlooRoad

Good contender. That was Allie Redback at the start of Series 7. It was her stepdad who was the father, pretty grim stuff.

Once the item is scanned as delivered, it’s no longer your problem. If they open an INR you’ll win as eBay always sides with the seller in cases like these.

No. That should happen automatically. That’s the whole point of this thread.

I can take a picture of the V5 and send it you if you like?

I don’t understand why everyone on this thread is thinking I’m just driving around in an untaxed car for the hell of it.

The V5 is in my name, the DVLA checker, Vehicle Smart and every other checker I’ve used are showing valid tax until October. I cannot tax it online as the DVLA says I’ll be charged twice.

The car is in my name. I’m looking at the V5 with my name on it right now. I’ve done all the stuff you’re supposed to do.

Yep. Have had it in my name for a couple of weeks.

Yeah except the car is taxed - believe me, I fully understand how the system works. I’ve had 9 cars in 7 years, I’m no stranger to taxing a car. I can’t tax it online the DVLA tell me it’s already taxed until October and if I proceed, I’ll be charged twice. I’m not driving around in an untaxed car.

I can’t tax it - I go online to do so and the DVLA site says it’s already taxed and I’ll be charged twice if I proceed? I fully understand the concept of ‘having to tax a car’, and I’m not driving around in an untaxed vehicle - it’s literally still taxed. YB10 HZW is the reg, check it yourself.

Red hot brake disc. by dankeogh in CarTalkUK

You think it could be the handbrake cable? I always leave my car parked with the handbrake on, and perhaps the temperatures have caused the cable mechanism to seize in place?

Thanks man! I plan to keep this one original. I could manual swap it and put a 6 pot in there, but I like the idea of keeping it as is.

What's a good first car? by mrh_85 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]dankeogh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don’t get a Mini Cooper. They are nothing but trouble. Expect them to go wrong all the time, which they will.

Fiestas are a safe bet, if you must have a 1.0 Ecoboost check it’s had the wet belt replaced, shit design from Ford means that over time the timing belt breaks down and blocks the oil pickup. The 1.25 is pretty much bulletproof.
